Chapter 189.2: Group Invitation

But since he was in such a world, Su Xiao decided to play by his own rules.

Su Xiao decided to join Rainer and the others, after which he wanted to come to the Marlia Empire. On the way, he decided to go to the basement of Eren's house.

Even if there was nothing in Eren's basement, Su Xiao would be able to kill the inheritors of the titan powers that went to the empire with him.

Of the nine sentient titans, he was able to gather six for the campaign. To do this, he had to try very hard.

----

Ten hours later, Su Xiao woke up to the sound of his stomach howling. After washing up, Su Xiao left his exclusive space.

The first thing he did was go to the restaurant of one of the employees of Paradise.

The restaurant was small — there were only three dining tables - but the interior of the restaurant was warm, and the overall color scheme created a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere.

— Sorry for the long wait, " a beauty in her twenties came out of the kitchen with several plates of food.

She wasn't tall, but her figure was very good, and although she wasn't super-pretty, she was still a nice sight to look at.

Someone had addressed her as "Xia", and this was the second time Su Xiao had come to this restaurant.

—  Did you just come from the derived world? You're soaked in the smell of blood, " she sat down across from Su Xiao and rested her chin on her hands.

It was the last time Su Xiao had met her, so her attitude in his eyes wasn't anything excessive.

—  Well, the derived world collapsed, so I got out of there early, " Su Xiao picked up a piece of bacon and started chewing on it. Xia's cooking skills were at a very high level, but because her restaurant was far away from the main streets, she didn't have many guests.

This was one of the reasons why Su Xiao decided to become a regular customer of this restaurant.

— Has there been a collapse? Wow, what happened to it that it started to collapse? Xia looked at Su Xiao in surprise.

—  I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I shouldn't ask about such things, " Xia said quickly, remembering that it wasn't customary to ask about something like this.

— I've killed many important characters, and I was surprised myself that the derived world suddenly started to collapse, " Su Xiao said as he placed an empty bowl on the table.

—  Oh, I've been to the world of ghouls once, and I can safely say that all these ghouls are real monsters. If you get there, don't be careless. Then I almost got eaten by an A-class ghoul. They are very strong and inhumane, " Xia said with a frightened expression.

— Oh? Thank you for the reminder, " Su Xiao said and smiled.

After finishing his meal, Su Xiao took out a cigarette and asked for the bill.

— There are 16 Paradise coins in total, but that's only 15 for you, so I'll be happy if you become my regular customer.

Su Xiao silently gave her 20 Paradise coins. Although she was sometimes overly talkative, she was very kind.

— This...  Xia wanted to refuse, but Su Xiao leaned back in his chair and shook his head.

At that moment, the restaurant's doors opened and a man in a suit walked in.

He was about twenty years old, and as soon as he entered the restaurant, a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

—  Hello, Mr. Byakuya, my name is Karl, I want to talk to you about something — " Karl immediately sat down across from Su Xiao, holding a deck of tarot cards in his hand.

Karl wasn't weak, Su Xiao rarely felt pressured by other contractors, and this 'Karl' made him feel uncomfortable.

— About what? Su Xiao frowned. This person not only knew his alias, but also knew where he could find it.

—  I want to invite you to join the Ghost Brigade. You don't have to give up right away, the rules of our team are different from the rules of normal groups. There can be a maximum of 13 people in our team, and each of the 13 people is part of a different derived world. Moreover, our team does not have a Boss-subordinate relationship. We only have 13 rooms. The smaller the number, the stronger the person, but no one can give orders. Even if someone decides to fight among themselves, after the declaration of war, other numbers will not interfere in the battle, we will only watch them.

After hearing Karl's suggestion, Su Xiao frowned. He found this "Brigade" a little familiar.

—  Yes, we took the basis from the group of "Spiders" from the world of "Hunter x Hunter" and it really is our inspiration, but compared to the spiders, our group is more free, " Karl said and smiled.

Su Xiao thought for a while and started looking for the oddities in the man's words.

— And why did you invite me to join your group?

—  You are strong enough to do this, and with our help, you can get exclusive information and, if necessary, our help... Although you were able to almost kill Group leader Ban alone, it doesn't mean that you will be able to join us right away. You will need to go with me to the arena and we will fight there, and based on the results of the battle, you will be given a corresponding number, " after that, Karl fell silent and waited for Su Xiao to answer.

— I will consider your offer and give you a reply within three days.
